when you long press on an app, you should get two options:

1. reset icon to default

2. choose a custom image

if you select (2), then you should see the gallery. at least thats how it behaves over here
[Android Apps and Games] ssfortes:
I do not see the gallery, It returns to previous NoLed settings page, gallery is in background (when I close NoLed settings appears gallery...)
[Android Apps and Games] DarrenCarnall:
I somehow fixed mine. uninstalled it, rebooted, moved some icons from one folder to another, generally messed around for a while... and now it's working lol.

Don't ask me, I have no idea lol. :p
[Android Apps and Games] ssfortes:
I have uninstalled, reboot and re-installed (twice!), but it doesn't work, gallery application remains in background all time... any idea?

madmack: is it possible to do the same action editing directly a settings file? which file is it, where is?
[Android Apps and Games] jonc:
I had problems setting icons using the gallery as well, where it seemed to open, then switch back to NoLED. I managed to apply a custom icon using Astro though, so all worked out in the end. It was white though, and you can't choose the colour like the rest.

What would be nice would be if you re-jigged the list of notifications/icons to be more generic, so that all notifications are the 'same' from a UI POV. So while you may open the picker to add new entries to the list, once it's there it seems to be and has the same options as a regular system notification.
[Android Apps and Games] D@niel0s:
I've got something similar. In the middle of the night my phone is restarting, but I don't have to type my pin code again. So it's not a normal restart. I'll uninstall no led and check it today :)

System: doc v9.9

Kernel: damian 1.2
[Android Apps and Games] Aleziss:
I guess it won't be possible then !

Yes I'm using blink.

So if I understand this correctly, if the blink is set at 15sec, the audio reminder cannot be set at more than 15sec or it has to be set during the time the screen is on so we hear a notification ?

I do flash the logos for 1s every 15s.

So I guess there is no possibility to use only audio notification without any visual reminder since the audio reminder is "controlled" by the screen off/on...

there is nothing that can be done ?

That was an awesome feature specially when you do not hear the phone so every "x" minutes, the phone reminds you that you missed something without looking at it...

I would need to try to set the blink at 5 minutes and see if I hear something at 5 minutes...

Thanks again for great support !
[Android Apps and Games] ssfortes:
I have installed Astro File Manager and it works, finally I have could select a custom icon, but is white... :D

EDIT: no problem with colour, it's easy to change
[Android Apps and Games] f.lix.droid:
super app!!!!! love this!!!! thanks :D :D
[Android Apps and Games] madmax916sps:
I've never used BLN or noled before, because nobody can tell me about batterydrain.

Can some one give me answer, how much Battery noLed take?
[Android Apps and Games] D@niel0s:
No more reboots in the middle of the night as long as I uninstalled the app. But I have no idea what was causing it...
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
Here is what you can do: set the off time in blink to be something very large, and the on time to be something small. That way your screen is actually almost constantly off, then set the audio reminder to be something smaller than the blink's off time. It should work the way you want it; screen off, audio reminder only.

FAQ has an entry for you.

hmm.. very weird, could it be memory leak ? kernel panic ? Would your phone reboot if you disable NoLED overnight ? some sort of logcat would be good to have, otherwise one can only speculate.
[Android Apps and Games] madmax916sps:
Ok only thing i know after reading is that Diffrent settings drain different much Battery.

Ok than i ask so, what setting you use. Best setting for Batterylife also know that someone called me :D
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
you need to look into both proximity sensors and blink.

best ? it really depends. the app is very flexible. you can set the blink off screen to something very large and the on time to something very small and depend on audio reminders only. i guess thats the most aggressive option.

i don't understand why you don't try these options out for yourself and see which ones fit you ? you do have the phone, don't u ;)
[Android Apps and Games] madmax916sps:
kk thx for helping, i will try....

My question for best is complex and got ulterior sense xD my english is not good as yours :D I only ask that i understand the different between the settings, and make it clearly for me about "when the screen is on" and so.

How i understand if i set blink to all 20 sec and this 15 minutes, the screen is on for 15 minutes or the Battery drain is in the 15 Minutes more than after timeout. the blinking intervall is not the one who drain much, its the part how long the notification from Noled is on.

did i understand that right?

thats because i ask it shortly ^^

thougth you give me an example and i interpret the rest out of it :P

but if you stand by me with your Profesional help it will be better for me

Edit:

So my settings are now Blink enable and set blink off 30 sec, an Blink on 0,1 sec

timeout after 5min, audio intervall every 60 Sec.

that should be an mild batetrydrain setting.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
the battery drainer is the screen. the more you minimize the use of it, the better battery drainage you'll get.

set the blink off time to: 400 and on time to 1. this will keep your screen off all the time. put your audio reminder to 10 seconds. that's just an example here.

you know that noled has a german translation too right ?
[Android Apps and Games] D@niel0s:
Memory leak- impossible cos I have >50mb of free memory left. Kernel Panic - well cannot exclude that. I've got Damian's v1.3 kernel. My phone doesn't reboot if I froze it with titanium, that's what I've done yesterday. It usually happens when I try to download 5-6 big files (1gb) over the night. During the downloading it somehow reboots the phone. And I suspect it happens when I get an email or something. It wouldn't bother me but it's cancelling the downloading which makes me mad... I tried to disable no-led but it's still the same, reboot, and when I wake up no-led is working already with some email or sms.
[Android Apps and Games] TheNikkoMan:
Just wanted to drop in to give my thanks :D

love this, I have no problems.

if I could donate, I would.
[Android Apps and Games] marcusblade:
Just wanted you to know on 4.2.2 does not work on the htc Thunderbolt. The previous version did so I reverted back to that and all is good. Amazing app.
[Android Apps and Games] MattRussNC:
Great app that fixes a big defect from samsung. i just wish that you didnt have to have a lock screen for this to work.
[Android Apps and Games] Taomyn:
Unfortunately this isn't limited to the Nexus S as I just updated my SGS to 2.3.3 and the same thing happens :(
[Android Apps and Games] f.lix.droid:
epic this!!!!!! :D :D :D
[Android Apps and Games] lglossman:
Great App, thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Taomyn:
FYI the time + date + charging indicator shows 0% when phone is not connected to power source.

Might be a moot point for me unless there's a workaround for the soft button lights not switching off with Android 2.3 I'll have to stop using the app :(

[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
yea, Samsung inherited that bug. lol. if you try CM7 with bilboa's kernel, you'd see that its fixed. so its really something in the hands of the OS devs, not me unfortunately.

Google should hire bilboa :)

lemme see if i an replicate this %0 scenario that you're seeing.

good catch ! thanks.. i'm fixing that little %0 issue right away.

just fixed it in 4.2.4b

I wish we had some Fascinate users with stock ROMs who can test this app and give me logcats or details of errors. A lot of disgruntled :mad: Fascinate users in the comment section lately.
[Android Apps and Games] Taomyn:
Not sure what's going on but now after a short time, 10-20 seconds of being locked, NoLED sparks up displaying just the clock and there have been no alerts. The setting for Permanent Time Display is disabled, I deselected all Monitored Apps and the Monitor log shows no attempted alerts.

*Update* Disabled the clock display and it's still happening as I can now see just the two soft-button lights on with a blank screen
[Android Apps and Games] specpt:
thank you for this app, very usefull and it works flawlessly for me.

will donate when i can ;)

Kudos again
[Android Apps and Games] lglossman:
Great App, Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
this is happening with the beta right ?

i think i've figured out the problem. this is great debugging Taomyn, i really appreciate it.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
seems like we have a copycat ladies and gents:

iLED

the whole thing is in japanese so I can't make out what it does, downloaded it and it doesn't seem they've necessarily copied my files exactly. they offer a Pro solution too. :rolleyes:
[Android Apps and Games] DarrenCarnall:
Had to happen eventually I suppose. I think you should do a paid version though, this is one of indispensable apps on my galaxy s. I think you should be paid for your ingenuity and hard work! (even though I appreciate the fact that you've done this for free)
[Android Apps and Games] RaymondPJR:
NoLED

If it is too similar does the Android Market have some sort of copywrite? I know that screenshot is static, but I'll bet the icons randomly jump around the screen. That would be the same app even if the underlying files are not exactly the same.:(
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
I'm wondering the same as well. But I don't think Google's offers any protection of these sorts. I know so many apps that do the same kinda things, some, even exactly the same stuff and last time I checked Google didn't do anything about it.
[Android Apps and Games] BeeDubs:
When i enable the charge level notification, all other notifications default to the tiniest size, even if the theme is set to biggest.

Any ideas ?
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
it works fine over here :confused:

select a different theme, then reselect the theme you have. see if that helps
[Android Apps and Games] V300:
I read through it and it is pretty much the same thing you developed... Here is the "developer's" page: http://www.studiozitto.blog.com/

Under suggestion might want to tell him/her to try to make their own crap instead of ripping of yours:D

I love the part in their pro version statements where they talk about their expertise and "know how" O.o
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
done..

"awaiting moderation" lol

to my own surprise actually, %44 of NoLED's downloaders are Japanese :eek: It seems to be pretty big over there. The new version released today completes the Japanese translation so that should help.
[Android Apps and Games] V300:
Well it is an excellent app :D Many japanese users have language barrier when trying to access this forums, so I am not surprised if more apps developed here aren't stolen and merely just translated. The SC-02B, Docomo Galaxy S is most popular phone here in Japan right now.
[Android Apps and Games] rizlaq:
ok, i know there's this bug with nexus s soft buttons not lighting off, but is this also the culprit behind my home key being always active?

– even though i have the "Use Home button" option off, it still dismisses notifications. (on the other hand, the power button works rather fine on this device, never noticed any lagging...)

btw, is there any chance, technically, to work around the no-lock apps conflict?

other than that, a great app for us poor sods left without a proper led ;], keep up.
[Android Apps and Games] D@niel0s:
Bug in the new app:

Try to set up turn off clock at 12:30 AM, it will show 12:00, it just doesn't show minutes.

[APP] NoLED v4.2.5 - Use the AMOLED screen for incoming notifications

Woohoo! The latest update fixed whatever was allowing Android to kill the notifications on my Samsung Intercept. I'd tried everything - followed the FAQ, various user suggestions, threw my phone against the wall, etc., etc.. This is one of two notification apps I've found invaluable.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
after you enter "30" in minutes, just click once on the Hours text entry then press ok, it'll work. when you edit the minutes and enter time manually, this can happen. Haven't found a way around it yet but you can always use the arrows to set the minutes/hours too as that is not affected by that bug.

hmm.. the "trick" for intercepting the home button is apparently not working on gingerbread. i'm not out of ideas really.. :confused: that's awesome that you don't have any lag with the power button. good old vanilla Android :)

I'm not ruling out a future version where NoLED would finally be fully compatible with not having a lock screen. I just haven't had the time to sit down and give it a decent amount of time and thought. its a little tricky with all of these notifications and the different way they behave when they trigger you see.

I keep delaying things til summer, so maybe this one goes into that shelf too :rolleyes:

NoLED and Gingerbread 2.3.3 (JVK)

@madmack

NoLED and Gingerbread 2.3.3 (JVK)

The Menu and Back capacitive buttons also light up with screen notification. This has increased battery drain significantly. Maybe it’s a feature/bug of the ROM that cant be turned off, but perhaps you can look into it and see if there is a way around it .

If the new screen off animation is enabled, then that will also play back every time the icons blink (I have blink enabled in NoLED). Is there a way for you to bypass the screen off animation in your app ? I would like to keep the screen off animation, but this coupled with capacitive buttons lighting up eats up the battery like crazy. :(
[Android Apps and Games] V300:
Did you ever get a response from them? If you need help for me to translate, let me know.
[Android Apps and Games] Guegs!:
Hey, thanks for the little app. Looks cool.

I plan on getting the SGS II when it is released, and the lack of a LED bothered me. Discovering this was a joy! :D
[Android Apps and Games] geokilla:
Hey madmack, I noticed that with the latest NoLED, sometimes I will get the NoLED notification but I don't hear the notification ringtone indicating I have a text message, Twitter mention, etc.
[Android Apps and Games] Taomyn:
v4.2.5 seems to be working much better for me under JVK, excluding the backlit button issue of course ;)

One outstanding issue which I notice regularly is that if NoLED starts up during the period where the sleep time setting has disabled notification, that the app becomes enabled.

For example, this morning at around 07:30 it was notifying me that I had new email, but my sleep times are set for 23:00 to 09:00, so it should never have been on. I suspect the app restarted itself during the night, but then didn't check the sleep period to make sure it disabled itself.

Would be nice to see this fixed.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
the menu and back buttons are definitely buggy in JVK. I've tried that version for a couple of minutes and I couldn't stand the backlights staying on all the time (specially for night reading :eek:). I'm hoping they'd fix that in their official GB release. Otherwise we'll have to look for hacks. But you notice the problem already by seeing that the backlights indeed never shut off once they're on and the screen is on. my money is on that it'll get fixed by sammy. the blink issue, i don't think google have enabled an option to disable that tv animation from the API. I haven't done enough research on that but once I move to GB and its official for the SGS (or if I upgrade to the SGS2 :D), I'll look harder for a solution.

The app should completely shut down during this period (no background services running at all), so it couldn't have restarted itself if it wasn't on in the first place. It might be something else. The scheduler is checked when the phone reboots as well so that couldn't have been it. I'm not entirely sure what caused it to "wake up" really. maybe it never really shut down ?

Nah, no response. They're moderating their comments section and I don't think they'll ever approve my little comment.:rolleyes:
[Android Apps and Games] Taomyn:
I'll check again tonight by switching the phone off and back on after 23:00 when NoLED should be asleep. My feeling is that NoLED will reactivate itself as that's what I recall seeing before, but we'll see what happens,
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
wait ! i found the bug. it indeed sets the scheduler on boot but it never checks the current status. I'll definitely fix that in the next release. Thanks again
[Android Apps and Games] Taomyn:
Cool, I can have an early night then ;)
[Android Apps and Games] PhoenixFx:
From what others are reporting, capacitive buttons always light up on Nexus S as well (link 1, link 2). So it might not be a bug after all :(. For now I have disabled the screen off animation, but still NoLED takes up a considerable amount of juice (30~50%). Luckily JVK ROM is very power efficient, therefore I can still use it for a day.
[Android Apps and Games] rizlaq:
yeah, it seems like there's a trick of sorts attempted, since the button sometimes does seem disabled (short taps are not registered and I really had to try hard to press it when this occurred).

yes, tho on the hand, the showy screen off animation can get quite confusing ;)
[Android Apps and Games] scmoonster:
would you consider?

Hi, after going through the FAQs and walkthroughs, I understand that the audio reminders will not work in silent/vibrate mode.

Any chance you would consider programming it so that the audio notifications would automatically toggle to vibrate reminders in silent/vibrate mode? Just b/c I don't want to have both the audio & vibrate reminders on all the time.

I'm not a programmer so no idea if this is possible or just not worth the work. I have a Samsung Fascinate (verizon) aka Galaxy S.

I love the program thus far and it works great. Thanks so much for developing!
[Android Apps and Games] Taomyn:
Just noticed that a Google Talk alert didn't get shown, and the log says that Google Framework Service was the one that fired. Could this be a change in Gingerbread? I'm running with JVK

2 suggestions:

When showing the charging percentage of the screen, the percent symbol, "%", should appear after the number.

When you revise the app, and I download it, it always turns the app off, and then I have to turn the app back on again. It would be nice if the app stayed on, even after updating.

Thanks for a great app.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
I'll consider this addition. Although I'd imagine that not everybody would be interested in this feature so it'll be optional, if implemented.

that's why we have this log ;) GTalk is indeed triggered by Google Framework Services even in Froyo.

Yea, that bug was noted and will be fixed in the next version.

Unfortunately there is no way for me to activate the app upon installation. Android's AFAIK doesn't have any way for us to determine that the app itself has just been installed. You can find out if other apps are installed, but not your own.
[Android Apps and Games] Taomyn:
Ah, so I'm not sure what's happened as I don't get any NoLED alerts appearing for GTalk notifications :(

This I believe is by design as no other app I have will self-restart on installation/update, they all need executing manually - rather handy as it allows apps like Lookout to scan them first without them having already executed and doing any damage.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
it works here. did you tick "google services framework" under Monitored Apps ? That's what I use personally with a custom image. I'm a pretty heavy gtalk user and it works all the time here
[Android Apps and Games] Taomyn:
yes i did both. i'll try to do some tests tonight, but i'm a light gtalk user, so it's not often i get any messages.

@madmack,

Is there a gmail API ? If so, would you be able to limit email notifications to custom filters or to the new Important filter ? :rolleyes: If possible I think its a nice feature to have, because it can help save the battery life and keep upto date with only the important email notifications. Right now I get lot of email on my gmail, most of which are promotional emails, news letters and various other updates (which are not exactly spam, but not worthy of having a NoLED notification either), and I think this is the case with most users who use their gmail account as the primary mail account.
[Android Apps and Games] RaymondPJR:
NoLED

That guy from a couple of pages back offered just that. I think his name was 'dcomousr' or something.:)

edit: Oops, Docomo was below his name. His name is 'v300'. Sorry! http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12541294&postcount=2247
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
Gmail is closed source and the way I'm retrieving email information is really a hack and a workaround. Any gmail update through the market can break my method one day ! I think its a matter of time :o So I'd rather not build on it further given how unofficial and fragile that whole trigger is.

Here is a suggestion though, why don't you archive everything except your Important label ? My app only monitors Inbox, so it shouldn't notify you about these guys. You can set up labels that archive and keep them as unread.

You're right ! for some reason I have not thought about that guy. I'll pm him and see what he says. DoCoMo seems to be offering to showcase my app at a DoCoMo lounge event in May from what I gather by google translate :D
[Android Apps and Games] geokilla:

Hi madmack,

I'm using 4.2.7 b2, however I found out the settings cannot be saved, after some time (or once in a while) it will prompt me the startup dialog (with a "dismiss" button) and at this time the setting has been reset :(

I'm currently on Darky ROM 9.5, other app doesn't have this problem of saving setting, their setting remain across reboots (which is normal) but noLED 4.2.7 b2 cannot save setting across reboots.

pls help me. Thanks :)

hi

there are 4 points that move and I don't know what application is attached to these points

is there a certain incompatibility with k9 mail?

It seems that every mail check the noled's notification appears I did not have this problem with stock mail

I use version 0.27b and I had these problems on 0.25 too

thank you
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
you'll need to delete the noled data folder because it got corrupted. I believe its in /data/data and the folder name is com.led.notify

are you checking k9 under monitored apps ? if so, that's probably why because K9 displays a little notification in the status bar every time it checks your email and NoLED triggers based on these notification events at the status bar.

I suggest you use the integrated support of K9 which you can customize (colors, which email accounts, dots/icons). your k9 email accounts should be listed under Toggle > Emails.

if you're not sure why you have multiple dots, you can always use the Advance feature of monitoring the status bar. This will tell you the last 10 apps that triggered the status bar.
